I read Cedfano won the Norris trophy once. Never heard of the guy, hehe. Personally I do not see the consistency thing with Boychuk, but when the team plays defense (CJs system) he is valuable. Johnny Rocket, Manchuk, and other superlatives do not cut it, he is a functioning aspect of the machine.

In response to Crowls2424's comment:

Playing with Cedfano doesn't hurt his game either, but he's held up his end of the deal.

It will be interesting to see what happens to the pairings come playoff time. Given the present roster make-up, one would think that Seidenberg stays with Hamilton and Boychuk plays with Cedfano.

Boychuk does his job plain and simple, top four minutes and not many mistakes. He's hard on opposing forwards behind the net and catches the odd one with their head down in open ice. You don't hear his name mentioned very much when it comes to d-men having bad games. Also has a great shot...wish he would hit the net more and very durable, tough Edmonton kid.I like him.

Boychuck is one of the players that Claude counts on, and he is cutting down on mental[ passing] mistakes. NeelyOrr [ quite a name] doesn't appreciate comments on the limitations or mistakes made by this team. Oh well, I calls them like i see them, and i don't like Johnny B taking himself out of the game just to make a big hit. Glad to see Thorny, who I often wish was the 7th player, take care of Reynaldo's flyiing[ off his feet] crunch on Boychuck. Thought the refs allowed a number of Philly's hits, trips etc. to pass without penalty, but , for the most part the Bruins kept away from retaliation. Even Lucic talked Horton down at one point. Smart hockey.

Yea which is something Nobody else see's! Get off the bath salt...And you're one to talk about a name

As much as I'd like to agree with Boychuk's play, I don't think Julien has the luxury of pairing Ceddy with Seidenberg come playoff time. That might have more to do with Hamilton than Boychuck, though.
